USE JACKSTANDS IF LIFTING

What To Do
Ok first off, your going to need a sway bar, I took the one off of my 89 GT. Pretty sure all the mustang sway bars are interchangeable. I was always planning on painting it while it was on my GT, so now was the perfect time, I got off as much of the coating as possible, sanded it, and gave it a few coats of red.

To start off you might as well take your tires off to make life easier.
You will notice on your lower control arm there is one hole, and a flex line hold down.

Slide the flexline out of the clip and take the bolt off Using a 13mm Socket.  [image]http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b209/AtomixPaintball89/P1010052-1.jpg[/image]

Line the swaybar up in the control arm and insert bolts, hand tighten and just start the bolts, go to the other side and get those ones in, then tighten using a 14mm socket. them.[image]http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b209/AtomixPaintball89/P1010056-1.jpg[/image]

After installing you might notice a difference in handling, and it looks great. Everything usually cost $25 from a junkyard. This was very eaisy and i accomplished in under 10 mins (install)
